Objetivos. Evaluar la actividad antimicrobiana de la Myrciaria dubia sobre microorganismos orales. Materiales y métodos. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura siguiendo las recomendaciones PRISMA mediante búsquedas en Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO, ProQuest, EBSCO y Google Scholar, de estudios publicados durante 2008 y 2018. Resultados. Se recopilaron 11 estudios, in vitro, todos los estudios evidenciaron actividad antimicrobiana positiva, principalmente por cada una de las partes de sus frutos, sobre grampositivos. Sin embargo, dicha actividad fue comparada con clorhexidina en solo dos estudios y en otro resultó ser mejor que un antibiótico. Se detectó un alto riesgo de sesgo en la mayoría de estudios. Los compuestos fenólicos incluidos polifenoles y acilfloroglucinoles fueron señalados como los responsables de su actividad. Conclusiones. Existe evidencia sobre la actividad antimicrobiana de M. dubia. Su estudio como antimicrobiano contra microorganismos orales es aún incipiente, pero se advierte un gran potencial debido a los fitoquímicos potentes que posee. Además, se necesita más estudios de calidad, que comparen su actividad versus antisépticos orales y sobre más microorganismos asociados a caries dental y enfermedad periodontal.

“…Both the pulp and peel mixtures were allowed to stand for a period of 10 days, shaken periodically three times a day, and subjected to multiple filtering processes with the Whatman filter paper. Subsequently, the extracts were placed in a "Memmert" laboratory stove (model EU 500) for a period of 8 days at a constant temperature of 45°C, with the intention of volatilizing ethanol and obtaining highly pure extracts [14,15].…”

“…Once the plantings were completed, they were plated and labeled, and finally, all the cultivated plates were place in a laboratory Auto-Flow UN-4950 incubator at a temperature of 37°C for a period of 24 hours. Finally, the inhibition halos produced by the different evaluated groups were measured by the technique of direct contact in the well, measuring the zones of inhibition in millimeters with a digital Vernier caliper [14,15].…”

Objectives. To develop and formulate a new experimental dentifrice with and without fluoride based on the peel and the fruit of thePassiflora mollissima(tumbo) and also to evaluate its antimicrobial activity against seven bacterial strains.Methods. The sample was calculated using the mean comparison formula, obtaining wells (n = 12) for each of the strains evaluated:S. mutans,E. faecalis,Actinomyces,Lactobacillus,C. albicans,S. sanguinis, andS. oralis. The antibacterial activity of the dentifrice was evaluated by the direct contact technique.Results. It was found that the highest antimicrobial activity was only present in pulp-based dentifrices against strains ofS. mutans21.0 ± 1.8,E. faecalis16.3 ± 3.9,Actinomyces22.1 ± 1.3, andLactobacillus21.0 ± 1.3. However, in comparison with other strains such asC. albicans,S. sanguinis, andS. oralis, the peel-based dendrifrice ofPassiflora mollissimaobtained the highest antimicrobial activity.Conclusion. The experimental dentifrice based onPassiflora mollissimahad an antibacterial effect against the seven microbial strains during the first 24 and 48 hours.

“…Knowing the uncertain future for the existing antimicrobial drugs and bearing in mind that in ancient times plants were invaluable sources for supporting human health, plants have become important resources for obtaining drugs over the past decade, according to the World Health Organization. [10][11][12] Antibacterial resistance is a serious health problem, and thus, it is important to find agents with new modes of action. The plants used in medicinal therapy present components that show physiological and pharmacological activities, which are effective antimicrobials for treating infectious diseases and can simultaneously mitigate the adverse effects associated with these illnesses.…”

Aim:The antimicrobial activity of Passiflora mollissima is largely due to its aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, terpenes, alkaloids, ketones, esters, alcohols, and lactones. The objective of this research was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the compounds in the Passiflora mollissima (Tumbo) fruit and leaves included also on cultured strains of the microorganisms Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus oralis, Streptococcus sanguinis and Candida albicans.Materials and methods: Antimicrobial activity was analyzed by the disk diffusion method and evaluated in terms of their zones of inhibition. The cytotoxic activity of these compounds was determined in a bioassay involving sea urchin eggs (Tetrapygusniger) in which the inhibition percentage of artificially fertilized ovules was equivalent to their cytotoxic activity after 26 hours. Results:This study demonstrated the antimicrobial activity of ethanolicPassiflora mollissima extract against the cultured strains of Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus oralis, and Streptococcus sanguinis with zones of inhibition after the incubation period. Conclusion:There was no evidence of activity against the pathogenic Candida albicans, which demonstrates a null antifungal capacity of the evaluated extracts. However, cytotoxic activity was found, and the compounds led to the complete inhibition of 100% of sea urchin ovules after 26 hours of exposure. Clinical importance:The results of the study serve as a guide. in the industrial use of this natural resource "tumbo" due to the discovery of a potential medicine based on this plant that would be a great development in the field of antimicrobial therapies.
